#GlowUp2018: How to Make a Vision Board

Hey lovelies! We’re back this week with a video on how to make your own vision board.

A vision board is a visual representation of your goals. While writing your goals down is powerful, visualizing them is even more so!

Before you discount a vision board as a hippy dippy waste of time, keep in mind that athletes and other successful individuals use visualizationall the time. Visualization is the real deal, and science backs it.

Psychology Todayreports that in one study, weightlifters were able to activate the same patterns in their brain whether they were physically lifting hundreds of pounds or just visualizing it.

Other research has revealed that visualization practices are almost as effective as physical practice. The same study found that engaging in both physical and mental practice is more effective than utilizing either method alone.

This is a great opportunity to get fancy and let your creativity shine. Decorate your vision board with contact paper, use pretty push pins, rhinestone decorations, gold accents, washi tape, or whatever you think is aesthetically pleasing.

There’s no right or wrong way to do it. Check out the video above for some great vision boarding tips. You can also grab Olivia Avenue’s vision board planning PDF for free, here.
